Gday Sheba. That's him. Who do you have for us?

Cheers.

You've got him Cupie.

Who do you have for us ?

 

Chips Rafferty MBE (26 March 1909  27 May 1971) was an Australian actor. Called "the living symbol of the typical Australian",[1] Rafferty's career stretched from the 1940s until his death in 1971, and during this time he performed regularly in major Australian feature films as well as appearing in British and American productions, including The Overlanders and The Sundowners. He appeared in commercials in Britain during the late 1950s, encouraging British emigration to Australia.[2]

 Let me ponder the question of a new mystery person ... for a bit.

 

BTW ... It is so right that I got this one correct as my schooldays nickname was "Chips".

 Well done.   

SWMBO said that this one was too hard.  She just did not reckon on the wisdom of our band of Grey Nomads.

Hi Tony & Bev . No not Walter Lindrum . The stick in the photo is a flag on a golf course . Nothing to do with sport really , he was in an advertising campain in the 60's , selling a very popular Australian invention . I think he used to sing Zip-Hip-Hooray .

Where I was living (in the 60's), we did not get TV until about 1971

Perhaps a few more clues, Brian
